Rolling with the Bumps

Happy 2011!  (Okay so I'm a little late...but with the Holidays & what-nots and sickness all around I've been a little busy unmotivated to blog...so yes Happy 2011).  Brian, Kade, and I ate our black eyed peas on New Years Day.  However, whatever we needed to eat for good health we apparently did not eat.   I am hoping that we are now on the right track (yes I just knocked on wood).


So anyway....I'm copying an idea from my friend Christy's blog (which is misspelled by the way...but hey she is from Oklahoma so what do you expect..and she got the idea from another blog so technically it's not really her idea anyway).  She has a pretty rockin blog (don't tell her I said this...she already thinks she is hott stuff)...you should go check it out...GO!
Loves to you Christy!  


Five Things I Can't Do Anymore

1.  Stand in cold, windy weather.  For some reason once I got pregnant I started having an allergic reaction to the cold, wet, windy weather.  We are talking little welps here people.  If my arms are exposed to the air...welps.  If my face is exposed...welps.  If my legs are exposed...well, you get the idea.  My friend Zyrtec has helped a little, but still I get welps.  Along with welps I will occasionally get bumps on my head.  Some of you have had the pleasure of seeing the forehead bumps...I try not to talk too much about the forehead bumps, I don't like to make them angry. 

2.  Drink Hot Damn and Big Red together.  This drink taste like liquid candy...so yummy.  The last time I had this drink was about 3 years ago.  Brian and I had just started dating.  We are talking like date number 3 or so.  So we went out to get some drinks with some friends and then all came back to my casa to have some more drinks.  Hot Damn and Big Red was my choice for the evening.  Long story short I ended up asleep...head on the toilet.  Ugh, I cringe just thinking about this night.  Thank goodness I had a good girlfriend to help take care of me while Brian paced in the hallway trying to figure out what to do.  The next morning I was so embarrassed and knew that was the end of Brian and I.  Needless to say I was shocked when he showed up later that day with sunflowers in hand to brighten my day and to let me know that even though the night before was awkward, he wasn't going anywhere.  Ahh

3.  Stay up late.  I freak out a little if I'm not in   bed   asleep by 9.  I remember the old days when I was getting ready to go out at 9.  I can't even fathom the idea of getting ready at 9 to go somewhere on a school night now.   I'm not saying that I can't go out, I can...just don't wanna.  Back then we went out to look for a husband...and since I found what I was looking for...being asleep at 9 with my husband beside me and my son in his room...is where I want to be.  *This is where my good friend Chris "Kooter" would speak up and say, "You killed the real Kara."   Ha...cracks me up. 

4.  Roll my tongue.  *Actually I have never been able to do this, but I'm tired and running out of ideas.


5.  Watch Live TV.  The DVR has spoiled me.  Seriously, Brian and I will wait till a show has been on for about ten minutes then we will start watching it from the DVR so we can fast forward through the commercials.  We usually end up catching up with the live show at the end...so it's all good. 

....and there you have it....five things I can not do anymore.
Thank you to Christy and her blogger friends for the great idea.

Oh...and I can't look at him and not smile...
